Best Answer

fluorine and neon

Added:To my best knowledge there are 3 naturally occurring isotopes with 10 neutrons:

8O(18) (0,2%),

9F(19) (100%),

10Ne(20) (91%),

And additionally: only 12Mg(22) which is artificial and not stable (radio isotope).

I believe the two elements (there may be more) are Neon(Atomic number: 10) and Fluorine(Atomic number: 9). To find the neurons, all you have to do is subtract the atomic number and the atomic mass. Hope this helps!

Sodium and magnesium

Added:

There are more than two naturally occurring isotopes with 12 neutrons:

10Ne(22) isotope (9%)

11Na(23) isotope (100%)

12Mg(24) isotope (78%)

Many isotopes have 10 neutrons in the atomic nucleus (Be-14, B-15, etc.).

How are elements determind?

Elelments are determined by the amount of protons they have. While different elements can have the same number of neutrons and protons, no two different elements can have the same amount of protons.


Lighter elements have more or less number of protons than neutrons?

Lighter elements tend to have neutrons equal to protonms or only a slight excess. Heavier elements have an excess of neutrons over protons


When an atom has an unbalanced ratio of protons and neutrons what will it try to do to stabalize itself?

There generally isn't a problem; the more protons an atom has, the more neutrons it takes to glue them together. A Helium atom has two protons and generally two neutrons; in every other stable atom, there are more neutrons than protons. There are isotopes of elements with fewer-than-normal numbers of neutrons; these isotopes are generally unstable and radioactive, and will generally decay into other elements.
